Awwww, you beat me to it, Don :smilelol5:

Nope, not getting anything for Christmas at all - my wife and I decided to donate the money we would have spent to the local service-dog center in memory of our dog we lost a couple days before Christmas last year.

Say something, like "I confess.
I don't even own a reloading press."

Well, I bullet cast, process brass, and reload in my garage. It is not very comfortable in July-August. This is my peak season right now, in that the garage is comfortable and I try to get the bulk of the casting/sizing/reloading done in Dec-Jan for the entire year.

Yes, that a great idea. I'm going to try to do some of that also, but first I must finish work on my shop.
Wish I could work faster...but thats just the way it is.
I was able to pour a pretty good supply a few months ago. I should be able to get more done before the hot humid days get here.
Wish I had a large army tent to store things in while I'm working inside the shop. Problem is its always looking like rain this time of year and cant get most of this stuff wet.
Must have spent $1000's on the poly tarps that dont last very long in the sun etc....
Be nice to have some treated canvas tarps....Man are they expensive..!!!

I'm pretty satisfied with my little handgun reloading set up....but could always use more brass, boolits, primers and powder. But, my son is about to get some real reloading tools of his own for Christmas to use at his house ;-). But, then he'll be wanting to borrow my dies "occassionally" when he decides he wants to load for something other than .38/.357 (dies included is in his magic box for next Tuesday). I gave him my old "Lee Classic Loader" 6-8 months ago, and he's been hammering out .38 spl rounds in his shop behind his house and having a ball. I hope I get him totally hooked so I can borrow his stuff next year.

I treated myself to Christmas earlier this month by ordering up 8-pound kegs of H322, H-100, H1000 and IMR 4064, from Powder Valley. Now, if I could just find an Elf or two re-size brass, I can get some reloading done.
